Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to provide information to the site operator. Similar technologies — such as local storage, session storage, and pixels — perform comparable functions, and references to "cookies" in this policy include those technologies.
CloviScan uses cookies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences (such as light or dark theme), secure your session, and — where you have consented — understand how the Service is used so we can improve it. We do not use cookies to build advertising profiles or to sell your personal data.

Some cookies may be set by trusted third-party services that we use to operate the Service — for example, content delivery, payment processing, or analytics providers. These providers process data under their own privacy and cookie policies. We only enable optional third-party cookies after you have consented.
Where required by the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the ePrivacy Directive, we rely on your consent for all non-essential cookies, and on our legitimate interest in operating a secure, functional service for strictly necessary cookies. For more on how we handle personal data, see our Privacy Policy and Data Handling statement.
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The "Last Updated" date above indicates when this policy was last revised. Material changes will be communicated through the Service.
